As always, I love the bunny pic.

Congrats to all the bfps! Good luck to everyone still cycling/prepping/moving onto the next. And big {{{HUGS}}} to all those that need them.

AFM: No updates... I am 4dp5dt so I am in the lovely 2ww. Really not happy with the Crinone - the packaging changed, it is harder to open both the wrapper and sometimes the twist off cap. BTW - are those considered liquids? I am traveling later this week and will need to bring them with me.

Hope everyone has a wonderful week!

Milagros315 · May 2014

It's so quiet in here. Nobody has any updates?

Neither do I. I had my first beta draw this morning, but we won't get the results until this afternoon.

@Lady2010 It took me a few days to get used to the new ones too. Actually the first day I dropped the plunger in the toilet. Oops.

I think the restrictions apply to liquids and gels, so I would follow the standard guidelines. It shouldn't be a problem. Each applicator has less than 3 oz. in it so you could throw whatever you need in a zip lock and that should be fine.

@Milagros315 - fx for good news

we are waiting for our first u/s tmw; I am still feeling nervous despite betas all being normal. for our last beta they just told us it was greater than 5000 but said that their lab doesn't give an exact number above that level - seemed odd to me since everyone here seems to always post exact numbers - anyone else's RE do this? all the waiting at every single step in the process is so tough.

sparkles2040 · May 2014

Good luck to those are still waiting for answers and best wishes and hugs to those moving on to a new cycle.

Im still waiting for my first ultrasound which is scheduled for Thursday. Hopeful thinking about that! So nervous.

thebrewers2005 · May 2014

I can't get over how long our BFP list is!!! I think it's the longest I've seen!!

I'm going CRAZY in the 2WW. Today is 5dp5dt (FET) and I feel like pooh. So anxious to test but not wanting to test too early and deal with all the extra emotions that could bring.

heavenseyes55 · May 2014

Bfp warning

Beta 1 752
Beta 2 1515

First ultersound on Thursday

diamante1181 · May 2014

*bumping from iPhone

Beta 1 is in!!! 1538!! I go back on Thursday for beta 2.

Love the pic! I usually loathe Mondays but today is a-okay!

ltlavac · May 2014

Just got my 2nd beta result in: 1078!!! So grateful and very excited! My first ultrasound is scheduled for next Monday morning!! Congrats to everyone with BFP's, hugs to those who need them and fingers crossed for those still in the 2ww

Milagros315 · May 2014

Beta #1 is in - it's 232!! I can't believe it. I am so happy and so relieved. My clinic won't do another beta until Friday, so I'm going to be anxious all week. But today I am definitely pregnant

Congrats on the great betas @diamante1181‌ and @ltlavac‌!!

ltlavac · May 2014

Woohoo @Milagros315, congratulations! Friday will be here before you know it

Ham113 · May 2014

Wow, the April BFP list is really long! Congrats ladies, and good luck to those in the 2ww, and hugs to those that need them.

AFM, we had our second u/s this morning at 6w4d - two heartbeats. Baby A had a heartbeat of 120 and is measuring a few days behind right at 6w; Baby B had a heartbeat of 115 and is measuring ahead at 7w4d (?!). We go back next Monday for a 3rd u/s, the week after that for a final, 4th u/s with the RE and then will graduate. I called my OB today to schedule my first appt and don't go in until 12 weeks, which I think is kind of weird but maybe that's normal especially since I'll have an 8wk u/s with the RE.

Great news on all the betas! I don't have much going on this month anymore, and I'm traveling, which makes it harder to keep up and post...but I am thinking of you all and keeping my FX for more good news.

I hate to see BFNs and now know how annoying it is to wait for another month to FET or be delayed...but I take great comfort in both seeing the BFPs and knowing I will see familiar faces with me in June.

Rebecca'sMama · May 2014

Nothing new here. Just waiting until my second beta in Wednesday, after the first one last week in Wednesday. My RE's office clearly wants to make me crazy.

I also must be the queen of faulty FRERs. I decided to take another this morning when I got up to go to the bathroom at 4 am. The control line didn't show up immediately. Then the hcg line popped up bright pink. After I went back to bed, then got up at 6, the control line was there but faint. I briefly freaked and was afraid the lines were reversed and I barely had hcg anymore. So I took another and both lines came up, darker hcg line.

rlk2 · May 2014

Hi gals! I'm scared to death that at some point things are going to go downhill. The reality of things still hasn't set in! My us is Thursday as well and I am soooo excited to see how many beans we have!! Hope it's okay I'm still hanging around. I'm too nervous to move on to PAIF

cls78 · May 2014

I am back from Mexico!!!

Congrats to all the BFP's while I was gone and hugs to all who need one!

I went in for monitoring today for my FET cycle and my lining is nice and thick (13.7) and my ovaries are quiet. I am getting a call soon from the nurse with my next instructions.

kittenmittens9 · May 2014

congrats to all the recent BFP's and good luck to you!

I'm waiting for AF and my wtf appt. basically I'm just doing research on our next plan of attack.

I'm happy to see you sticking around b/c I want your updates!! Happy for you dear.

cls78 · May 2014

My FET is set for May 24th!!!

MKateG · May 2014

They finally called me with second beta after I've been a nervous wreck all day waiting, its 4004! We're trying to figure out now when the u/s will be :-) I'm so thankful and almost can't believe it after so many heartbreaks, praying my little embies keep growing strong!

Rebecca'sMama · May 2014

@cls78, yay for May 24! Fx for you and all your frosties!

@MKateG, great beta!! Keep growing embies!

@rlk2, I feel the same way. Good luck on your u/s! Hope you see something wonderful!

babydreams13 · May 2014

Congrats to all the BFPs and hugs to everyone who needs them.

AFM. Another week until my 2nd ultrasound. My RE does US at 6w2d and 8w2d. Today I am 7w2d. I think everything is still working in there since I have been nauseous for a week straight now. I am not a fan of many foods. Uhh I hate waiting! I go in for intralipids this week though.

I hope you 2ww ladies get your BFP!

MKateG · May 2014

I woke up this afternoon to go to work tonight and had a little brown spotting and one tiny clot looking thing I called my Dr and he said he thinks everything is ok but of course we won't know for sure until I have an u/s which is scheduled for tm afternoon, im having the u/s done locally at another fertility clinic since my RE is out of town, I called my nurse manager and she kinda suggested that I call in and take it easy so that's what I'm doing, I just pray everything is ok I do not want to go through another m/c. I'll update tm after my u/s
